Hi Carl.
You did not mention if you did or did not, but you need to remove the virus also. You
might want to try the McAfee Stinger tool that is a free download shown at the link
below.

Your best solution may be to reinstall the operating system to a formatted hard drive
partition where the operating system lives, which you can do booting from the install
cdrom. Be sure to backup her needed data first [burn to cdrom/dvd or copy to another
hard drive partition ] including the user profile under documents and settings,
export internet favorites, and document tcp/ip and mail account settings if you do
not know what they are otherwise. --- Steve
